Hadn't heard it was this wide-spread. What are the chances their own security systems are at fault? If not, then at this scale couldn't thermal imaging spot something?
- betwixthewires 5y agoMy guess would be it is their own security. "Elsewhere in the world" also includes New York City.
- HWR_14 5y agoThermal imaging wouldn't detect microwaves. They are at very different parts of the spectrum.
- readflaggedcomm 5y agoIt might spot a beam hitting an absorbing surface, like skin.
- HWR_14 5y agoTrue, since the absorbing surface turns it into heat. If I recall correctly, the issue with microwaves is that they primarily absorb below the skin's surface.
- formerly_proven 5y agoEM radiation in the microwave range is super-easy to monitor using bog-standard spectrum analyzers.
